Vine's Expository Dictionary of NT Words
* Notes: (1) The phrase Heos arti, "until now," is rendered "hitherto" in John 16:24 , AV, and RV; in John 5:17 , RV, "even until now," which more definitely express the meaning that the AV, "hitherto;" the rest of the Father and the Son having been broken by man's sin, they were engaged in the accomplishment of their counsels of grace with a view to redemption. (2) The phrase achri tou deuro, lit., "until the hither," or "the present," is used of time in Romans 1:13 , "hitherto." (3) In 1 Corinthians 3:2 , AV, oupo, "not yet," is translated "hitherto ... not," RV, "not yet." Copyright Statement
